Separated from Trust Creek by a curtain of weeping willows, this home in Kelowna is the ultimate place to recharge and reconnect with nature. Take the kayaks out for a paddle on the creek or simply sit on the banks waving to passersby as you admire the water views to a soundtrack of chirping birds. This is also an idyllic spot for bookworms to catch up on novels, but you’ll find plenty more nooks around. The cosy L-shaped sofa, for one, is perfect for chillier evenings when you can kindle the fire and read to the snap and crackle of the flames. The bedrooms are bright and cosy, offering a bit more privacy when you need a moment to yourself – or perhaps you’d prefer a holiday romance with a side of wine and bubbles, in which case reading in the tub is the perfect go-to. There are also sunloungers on the deck and a firepit to sit by, and these spots are similarly great for meditation, catching up on podcasts, or to enjoy as a group. The fire pit is especially magical after sundown when you can roast marshmallows and chat the evening away under the twinkling night sky. Soak in the hot tub, take a dip in the plunge pool, and after barbecuing lunch, plop down on the lawn to enjoy a plate. There are plenty of options for brewing fresh coffee, but if you fancy the walk, pop down to the local Starbucks only five-minutes away. The beach is at the other end of a fifteen-minute walk, but be sure to also check out the organic farms in the area. You might even be inspired to try a farm to table recipe for dinner in the generous kitchen.
